U.S. Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) did not gracefully accept defeat in her re-election primary on Tuesday.
Instead, the left-wing member of the “Squad” railed against a pro-Israel PAC that had helped fund her opponent, St. Louis County District Attorney Wesley Bell. In the tight Missouri race, Bush proved to be a sore loser when she became the second “Squad” member to be defeated, following Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) losing his re-election bid last month.
Following her loss, Bush spit fire as she claimed that leaving Congress only “takes some strings off” and frees her up to do more.
“Because now, there are some strings that I have attached. And as much as I love my job, all they did was radicalize me, and now they should be afraid,” she said.
